North Carolina Japan Center

The NC Japan Center serves as a focal point for interaction between Japan and North Carolina, and is a statewide resource intended to assist all citizens, universities, companies, and public and private institutions in relations with the Japanese. Because of its role, the Center has historically received funding from the State, the University, and from corporate sponsors who support its mission of outreach and public service.

Founded in July 1980 by Governor James B. Hunt, the Center continues to strengthen the state's academic, economic, scientific, and cultural ties with Japan. Its Academic Advisory Board consists of faculty from colleges across the University, providing guidance and direction for academic exchange and development. An external Board of Advisors includes prominent citizens of North Carolina who have a strong interest in Japan and US-Japan relations.
